Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
2015. Released alongside the premiere of 'Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens', marking a transition in LEGO Star Wars design toward more detailed, screen-accurate flesh-toned figures.
Rarity
Uncommon. This specific version was exclusive to the Poe's X-Wing Fighter set (75102). While not ultra-rare, it is more desirable than his more common Resistance flight suit versions.
Head
Light flesh tone with black bushy hair piece. Features a dual-sided face: one side with a smirking expression and the other with a determined/angry scowl. Both sides feature printed stubble and eyebrows.
Torso
Black jacket with light bluish gray shirt underneath. Detailed printing includes jacket pockets, zippers, and a brown belt. The back includes jacket stitching designs. Hands are light flesh tone.
Legs
Dark brown unprinted legs with a dark brown hip piece.
Accessories
Typically comes with a small black blaster pistol (not pictured). No capes or specialized gear were included with this specific variant.
Color Scheme
Primary colors are Black, Dark Brown, and Light Bluish Gray. This palette represents his civilian/pilot-off-duty attire seen on Jakku.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head and torso front/back. The detail on the jacket zippers and the subtle stubble on the face show the refinement of 2015-era printing standards.
Variants
There are several variants of Poe Dameron, including his orange flight suit (sw0671), his white resistance jumpsuit (sw0926), and a version with a specialized printed flight helmet.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the 'neck' of the torso cracking and loose hip joints. The hair piece is prone to minor surface scratches. Ensure the stubble printing isn't rubbed off on the chin.
Estimated Value
New: $8.00 - $12.00 | Used: $5.00 - $8.00. Value remains stable due to the character's popularity and the fact this outfit is specific to the film's opening.
Price (New)
Retail $79.99 (Set 75102). The figure was one of three included in this mid-to-high tier set.
Compatible Sets
75102: Poe's X-Wing Fighter (2015).
Character Background
Poe Dameron is a commander in the Resistance's Starfighter Corps and one of General Leia Organa's most trusted operatives. He appears in the Star Wars sequel trilogy.
Design Notes
The torso was notable at release for being a very accurate 'civilian' look for a Star Wars protagonist, straying from the usual jumpsuits. The hair piece was a relatively new mold for the time, perfectly capturing Oscar Isaac's hairstyle.
Similar Minifigures
Han Solo (sw0714), Cassian Andor (sw0790), Poe Dameron in Flight Suit (sw0671).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is a 'must-have' for completionist Star Wars sequel collectors, though it doesn't command the high prices of 'Skywalker Saga' legends.
History
This was the first version of Poe Dameron ever released, appearing in the very first wave of 'The Force Awakens' sets in September 2015.
Interesting Facts
Though Poe wears this jacket throughout the first act of the film, he eventually gives it to Finn, making this figure compatible with 'Finn' headswaps for screen-accurate play.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed inside or next to his signature Black and Orange T-70 X-Wing. Pairs well with BB-8 and the 2015 version of Finn.
Modification Potential
Excellent for custom Resistance or Rebel pilots. The torso is a popular choice for 'purist' MOCs of various modern-day or sci-fi characters due to its realistic jacket design.
Overall Assessment
A solid, era-defining minifigure. While simple in its leg design, the torso and head print perfectly capture the character's likeness and are essential for any Sequel Trilogy collection.
